Safety signs
Safety signs play an important role in the safety of people by installing them in a place where there is a risk. Indeed, it is a simple universal warning everyone can understand, the signs are differentiated according to their shape, color, and category according to the ISO 7010 standard and exist in different materials.
Why our Safety signs?
Our safety signs are standardized and comply with the ISO 7010 standard, robust, and can be fixed on any surface (walls, doors, machines…) inside or outside, and our solution offers panels that will not fade or scratch over time. We also advise you on how to choose the type of material of the pictogram, its dimensions, and how to attach it.
If the standard pictograms do not meet your needs, we can make customized signs.
